During the American revolutionary war a rebel government was aided by European powers to fight against their rival/enemy, the British.
Likewise we see that another rebel government in the US was aided by Russia in order to weaken Europe, Ukraine, and its allies.
NATO has more or less been disbanded without armed confrontation allowing for easier Russian expansionism and a return to "spheres of influence" diplomacy.
Even expansion into Europe probably won't be very armed. It will largely be done by offering aid to a country's elites and oligarch aspirants, getting them to turn against their citizens for 30 silver.
I don't really think it's much more complicated than that.
We are experiencing a decapitation strike as a military action against America for our hand in helping Ukraine defend itself: https://snyder.substack.com/p/decapitation-strike https://snyder.substack.com/p/decapitation-strike
Our military is failing to protect us from enemies foreign and domestic. https://www.army.mil/values/oath.html https://www.army.mil/values/oath.html

- hayst4ck 2y agoApologies for the paywalled link, when I first read the article it was not paywalled. I am not particularly sure why it is now. I agree it is unfortunate and would like an explanation. Many thanks for the archive link. He has very large amounts of content on youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=biZVrh821RA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=biZVrh821RA I think that series touches on his book "The road to Unfreedom," and he also did a full reading/discussion of his book "On Tyranny." He also posted a lecture series on the history of Ukraine. I think he did a video called "How could the holocaust have happen," which was unfortunately informative.
